Over the past few days I’ve shared how we do birdwatching at our home and how other families encourage birding in their homes. I thought it might also be helpful to share what resources we have in the bird corner in our playroom that we use frequently.

Our bird corner

Bird Log Kids

by Deanna Brandt

Whenever we identify a new bird, we always record it in our bird journals. Lucy has this bird journal for kids. We record the information together, and she draws a picture of the bird.

Rite in the Rain Birders Field Journal Kit All Weather

by Rite in the Rain

This is what I use to record my bird sightings. Of course, you could just use a regular notebook! 

The Young Birder’s Guide to Birds of North America (Peterson Field Guides)

by Bill Thompson III

This is Lucy’s official bird book. I love helping her locate birds we’ve found in it. It’s a great way to practice using nonfiction resources!

National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Birds, Western Region

by Miklos D. F. Udvardy

And this is my official bird book I use to identify birds we spot.

Beginning Birdwatcher’s Book

by Sy Barlowe

Lucy has loved this sticker book. She also uses it as a resource when identifying birds~ it’s much easier for her to use this one on her own.
